Malachi 2:4-10

4And ye shall knowH3045 that I have sentH7971 this commandmentH4687 unto youH3588, that my covenantH1285 might be with LeviH3878, saith the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.

5My covenantH1285 was with him of lifeH2416 and peaceH7965; and I gaveH5414 them to him that he might fearH3372, and he fearedH3372 meH5414, and stoodH2865 in aweH2865 of my nameH8034.

6The lawH8451 of truthH571 was in his mouthH6310, and unrighteousnessH5766 was notH3808 foundH4672 in his lipsH8193: he walkedH1980 with meH7725 in peaceH7965 and uprightnessH4334, and didH3808 turnH7725 manyH7227 awayH7725 from iniquityH5771.

7For the priest’sH3548 lipsH8193 should keepH8104 knowledgeH1847, and they should seekH1245 the lawH8451 at his mouthH6310: for he is the messengerH4397 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.

8But ye are turnedH5493 asideH5493 outH4480 of the wayH1870; ye have caused manyH7227 to stumbleH3782 in the lawH8451; ye have corruptedH7843 the covenantH1285 of LeviH3878, saith the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.

9Therefore have I also madeH5414 youH834 contemptible and base beforeH6440 allH3605 the peopleH5971, accordingH6310 as ye have notH369 keptH8104 my waysH1870, but have had respectH6440 of persons in the lawH8451.

10Have weH3605 notH3808 allH3605 one fatherH1? hath notH3808 one GodH410 createdH1254 us? whyH4069 doH3605 weH3605 dealH898 treacherouslyH898 everyH3605 manH376 againstH376 his brotherH251, profaningH2490 the covenantH1285 of our fathersH1?
